Another successful all natural VBAC with Your Birth Helper & Team in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Immune compromised mom shares her labor journey and tips advocating for your own healthcare.

Readers, meet Melody of Monroe, North Carolina and be encouraged. She just “gave birth” to her first child on Friday, April 19, 2019. I emphasize giving birth, because SHE put in the work necessary to bring forth life. Even though she had a hospital birth, as so many first time moms do, she did not have her baby delivered from her body by a doctor. Melody and her husband, Wilson had educated, trained and prepared for this very day for 9 months. She knew what to expect and

This birth was chosen for our YBH Charlotte Birth of the Year, for many unique reasons. First, watching this couple labor together, moved me and others in the room to tears, literally! Second, the husband coach, Wes unknowingly helped write his own birth story. Normally, I write the birth story from the perspective of Doula, in combination with sharing answers to questions I ask the couple, along with educational information that applies, as to better prepare other couple'

Our Your Birth Helper team members encourage all couples to learn their options, choose where to birth based on their preferences of what is important to them and create a person

You might find the chores of natural induction to be too tiring, too challenging, too much work, but seriously do you think your man made Labor contractions will be a cake walk? If so, better think again. Your labor will always be easier to manage if you go into spontaneous labor all on your own. In it’s natural form, most women find labor to be much less challenging. Jessica would concur, it was a full days work for her, but she also did a fabulous job of preparing and prep

Lottie Lucille Reynolds was born May 7, 1918 near Bishopville, SC. She was incredibly patient and could withstand any hardship for the good of the family. Many would refer to her as the matriarch of the Reynolds family. We, as females, before, during and after pregnancy, nursing, potty training, cooking, cleaning, etc. work tirelessly inside and outside the home to meet the demands of a growing family. Ms. Lottie was no exception, a living example of resilient womanhood d

Although, the average healthy mom carries 41 weeks and 1 day to birth a baby full term. Sometimes, baby has a different idea. Sometimes, the moon phase can get the uterus all riled up. Sometimes, bacteria, virus, etc. could contribute to an early water break. Sometimes, due dates are simply wrong and sometimes, it could be the RIBS! No matter the reason, it is not always possible to stop premature labor as in the second labor of Melissa & Shane Leach. Melissa was 33 weeks
